The innovative Revolution design was developed in 1978 by Sergio Carpani to commemorate the construction of the Beaubourg in Paris (otherwise known as the Pompidou Centre, with its famous exposed structural skeleton design). The Revolution has been exhibited in the New York Museum of Modern Art.
The Revolution ballpoint is hand-made in Italy from 31 separate pieces. At heart, this is a simple retractable pen design, but with the usual cylindrical barrel replaced by three parallel tubes. This is more comfortable to hold than it looks as it has a triangular profile, which is quite contemporary among ergonomic pen designs. The tubes are constructed from anodised aluminium, finished in various colours, with black plastic connecting pieces.
Fitted with a Schmidt 700 refill. To gain access to the refill in order to replace it, simply unscrew the black tip. The Revolution is supplied gift-boxed and is guaranteed for 2 years against mechanical failure due to faulty workmanship.
